Configuration (optional)
The Admin GUI is located in Options/Recent Comments.

You can configure the number of comments and trackbacks, that are shown. And you can set the length of the cited comments and specify a maximum word length. Words longer than this value are wrapped to prevent them from damaging your layout.

Using macros you can customize the format of the cited comments and trackbacks:

%comment_excerpt

The text of the comment. It might get shorted to the number of characters you entered in “Long comments are chopped off at…”

%comment_link

The URL to the cited comment.

%comment_author

The name, the commenter entered in the comment form. If she left the field empty, the name is “Anonymous”.

%gravatar

This macro becomes a complete image tag. If the comment author registered a gravatar with gravatar.com. Example:
<img src="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php">

%gravatar_url

This macro becomes only the URL to the gravatar. Example:

http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php

%profile_picture

Becomes to URL of a profile picture. Use it like this:
<img src=”%profile_picture” width=16 height=16>. This only works after activation of Hannah Gray’sProfile Pics Plugin.

%userid

If the comment author is registered with your wordpress, and was logged in, when he wrote the comment this is replaced with the user id, she has in WordPress. You can do fancyful things with this macro. For example you may construct an image url, that points to pictures of all the authors of your blog: <img src="/images/user%userid.jpg">

The URL, the comment author left in the comment form, or if the comment is a trackback, the URL of the site that issued the trackback.

%author_url_href

The same like %author_url but inside a href statement.
If there is no URL, the whole macro is empty. Without a href=”" statement the link looks like a link, but
is inactive. Use it like this: <a %author_url_href title=”%comment_date”>comment_author</a>

%post_title

The title of the posting that was commented.

%post_link

The URL of the posting that was commented.

%post_date

The date when the commented posting was published.

%trackback_title

Only applicable in trackbacks: The title of the trackback. It might get shorted to the number of characters you entered in “Long trackbacks are chopped off at…”

Fix: Plugin was not compatible to WordPress 2.0.11 any more. Thank you to Stephan for reporting the bug.

2.0.1

2007/09/24

Added switch on the categories page, which reverses the
selection. It is now possible to include or exclude categories.

2.0

2007/09/24

New code for fetching the data:
1. Instead of one expensive database query we now use two or more cheap queries. Thanks to mirra, who reported the problem. And again thank you to the people mentioned in changlog 1.4, where the cache was introduced for the same (performance-) problems on big blogs.
2. This also fixed a bug, which lead to too less than requested comments in lists, ordered by post. Thanks to Johanna and Frédéric for reporting and documenting this.

Changed the css in the admin gui, to work around a display issue with Tiger Admin. Thank you, Andi, for finding this.

Added %time_since macro, which displays the time since the comment was posted. Thanks to Imran and Keith for sugesting (something like) this (very long ago).
Admin interface: Added switch fpr turning on and off smileys. Thank you, panos, for requesting this feature.

Support for Custom Smileys Plugin. Thanks to Henry for suggesting this.

Fix: Username was not displayed as “Anonymous”, if commentor left no name. Thanks to Pixelation for reporting this.

Added support for WordPress 2.3. It will drop the post2cat table. Changed plugin to new taxonomy scheme. A *great* thank you goes to Lakatos Zsolt, who provided a complete patch for get-recent-comments-1.5.6, which made it very easy for me to understand how 2.0-beta10 had to be changed. Thank you also to xelios, Ville and Kretzschmar who warned me, that WordPress 2.3 will break the old plugin code.

Use full pingback_author as %comment_author (instead of ‘Unknown’, if the pingback parser fails to recognize the pingback_author. Thanks again to Gant who found this in his blog.
Added %author_url_href macros, which allows to generate inactive links, if the
commentator did not leave an url. This was wished (in part long ago) by beej,carl, FilSchiesty and SwB.
Added %profile_picture macro, which supports Hannah Gray’sProfile Pics Plugin. Thank you for the idea and your help, Markus

1.5.3

2007/01/15

Refresh cache, when a comment is approved by moderator. Problem found by Gant. Thank you!

Store the cache base64 encoded. There seems to be a problem with the unserialization of multibyte characters. Thanks to priv, who reported the problem and suggested the encoding.After upgrading to this version you should trigger a regeneration of the cache by adding a comment somewhere.

1.5

2006/12/27

New pingback parser
Stop losing html entities and tags in the post titles and comments by using wptexturize. Thanks to ejm (again!) and mobius for reporting the problem and making suggestions.
Bugfix in widget code: Error, when trackbacks came before comments

1.4

2006/12/24

The plugin is a widget now. Thanks to herrmueller and Thomas de Klein for suggesting this feature.
Cache the output in order to reduce the database impact of the plugin. Thanks to the following people for reporting the poor performance and making suggestions to solve the problem: Brandon Stone, King of Fools, Robert Basic and especially CountZero.
Option to combine comments and trackbacks in one list (requested by Maniac and die produzentin)
Allow to Group comments by their posting (requested by eyolf)
Allow limit of comments per post (suggested by Thomas)
Use WordPress 2.1 compatible database variables. Thanks to spencerp, for reporting and fixing.
Bugfix: Wrong key used in gravatar hash (Thank you, Hamzeh N., for finding and fixing this).
Updated the stylesheets to the look of wordpress 2.x.
Added two macros: %comment_type and %post_counter.
Use less option variables in db.
Updated instructions page.
Dropped support for WordPress 1.2

1.3.1

2006/12/11

Fixes for problems with wordpress running under windows.

1.3

2006/11/26

Fixes for problems with php5.

Hi, thank you for this plugin, which is exavtly what I am looking for. However, on WP plugin page (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/get-recent-comments/) it says it is compatible only up to WP 2.3. I have WP 2.5.1. Is it working with it? If not, are you going to update it?
Thank you for your answer!

I have installed it, it is a great plugin!! Thank you Krischan for this awesome work! You should update the wordpress plugin page to show it is compatible with WP 2.5.1! What an awesome widget!! Thanks!

Trey: Disclaimer: Preprare yourself to get in more worse trouble because you run old software with tons of security holes. Having said that: go to http://blog.jodies.de/blog/get-recent-comments/old/ and fetch older versions of the plugin. I would recommend to try the youngest and go step by step to the older versions until you find a version that still supports WP 2.0.11. I would acknowlegde, if you would tell me which version works for you, because until now I thought 2.0.11 is still supported.

Hi there,
Know anyone which plugin to use if I want only a part of the article to be displayed? If someone want to read more there will be a “read more” link…
On my blog right now is displayed all of article content and I don’t want this…
I’m talking about the latest 10 articles displayed on the first page of my blog.
I’m using WordPress.
Can anyone help?

Diego (and anybody else who has this problem): This only happens when wordpress is just upgraded to something newer than 2.4.x It disappears automatically, when you receive the first comment, or you click “save settings” in the plugin configuration. Or in other words: when the cache gets refreshed.

Looking into WP 2.5 source code, seems everything related to BEG_OF_TITLE and END_OF_TITLE are widget related. I haven’t dived into detail yet, though I have a guess:

Under wp_list_widget_controls_dynamic_sidebar() in wp-admin/includes/widgets.php, the “before_title” widget parameters is set to that value, is it possible that get_recent_comments just invalidated the cache and set the before_title to this value?

Anyway, I just take a look at the native recent_comment widget, it never stores any widget args inside its cache; the only thing stored in cache is the mysql result. The output is composed out of the result afterwards, including the title, and the warping <li>’s. Maybe this plugin can do the same?

Gravatars don’t seem to be loading correctly in the sidebar comments–I’m seeing the default gravatar on every comment, including ones that display the correct gravatar in the inline comments. Here’s the code I’m using:

UPDATE: It’s working now. Apparently (coincidentally) the only folks whose comments I saw in the sidebar had used capital letters in their e-mail addresses. When I used wp-admin to change their e-mails to all lowercase, their gravatars appeared magically in the sidebar….

David: Thank you. Although you found a workaround, I consider this as a bug in the plugin. It should change the e-mail adresses to lower case before presenting them to the gravatar server. I will fix it.

hi
there is a small problem with this plugin – whenever i post Polish diacritic signs along with a quote sign it does not display it properly, it would show some strange symbol – testing it here: “test ał” – if this plugin is used here you will see that symbol (diamond with question mark inside).

the comment displays correct on the comment list but in the sidebar it wouldn’t. the problem is only with the letter “ł” – which strangely when written alone in quotes does not cause this..

I am using SMF for a forum on my site and am wondering how easy it would be to use WordPress instead since it seems to offer much better blogging features. Does it also offer the standard forum type stuff?

I tried using Joomla for one of my sites (www.redsun.com.pk) and it has turned out pretty good but I want users to be able to leave comments that can be shown by following a link for each article. Anyone have any suggestions?

Actually good news, after tweaking the options by leaving the closing li tag for the second line in Template for the post open box and closing it in the Template for the comments window after %comment_date, I limited the number of comments to 1 and…it worked. I could of sworn I tried this before posting here, but perhaps I messed up, anyways, thanks again.

Since the commenter’s name is a link you could make links display in block, change the background color, and set the width to the same pixel size as your sidebar all in your CSS. What will happen is that the poster’s name will be on it’s own line with one background color and the comment excerpt will be on the next line with a different background color.

hey there Krischan. Wounder if you can give me a hand?
I love this plugin! really do.
I have the same problem as Able (comment 2008-07-06 at 11.30 pm). Any idea how to implement the patch? I tried to contact him, but he didnt reply.
Any ideas?

You can see the problem on the website provided on the sidebar.
If you can help, I’d prefer an email reply if pos, however I will try to check back here.

Relequestual:The workaround is to disable the cache option of the get recent comments plugin.

Since the release of WordPress 2.5 some users reported, that their blog shows something like “%BEG_OF_TITLE%” instead of “Recent Comments” (or whatever they configured as title). The author of the plugin was not able to reproduce this bug until now (and hence not able to fix it), but it looks like the problem disappears, if you disable the cache option of the plugin:

I installed latest version of Custom smileys plugin and set a smiley for :d But It doesn’t show on sidebar in your plugin’s section. I think this is an important problem. I set do it like WordPress. from Misc menu. And WordPress offers conversion of emoticons like and to graphics on display. At the moment WordPress is set to: convert to graphics. Do I need to do anything else?

I was able to fix some stuff since I last posted the above messag pertaining to layout … however I am still having problems with linking to the comment itself and not the entire post… (mentioned above: Also, if you notice, if you click on each comment, it links to the post and not the commnet you are clicking on) …

“David: Thank you. Although you found a workaround, I consider this as a bug in the plugin. It should change the e-mail adresses to lower case before presenting them to the gravatar server. I will fix it.”

Have you already fixed it?
Can you tell me how to do it if you haven’t?
Tanks,
Pedro

Inal: Have you already looked into the admin interface of the plugin? You can change the published html without changing the php code. That’s the reason, why you didn’t find the code – the html is generated from the user supplied template. The html is not “hard-coded”.

what i want to change is the first li which corresponds to the widget itself. not the actual list of the comments that were made. For the list of comments, i understand that you can do it from the admin page.

Now, the text u see above ” ” is something that was automatically written. Not by me, and as far as i know, i cannot change it from the admin page.

what i am trying to say is that i want to change the LI corresponding to the widget itself, not to the actual list of comments. This, i think, is not in the actual admin page.

ill add _ so that the code above will show up.

if i go to the html source code of the page where i have the widget for your plugin, i see the following:

Recent Comments:

Abradj: EAGLES WE ARE_
the second comment
the third comment
etc

what i want to change is the first li which corresponds to the widget itself. not the actual list of the comments that were made. For the list of comments, i understand that you can do it from the admin page.

Inal: {li id=”get-recent-comments” class=”widget widget_get_recent_comments”} is not made by the plugin. This part of html is generated by wordpress and the theme. If I were you I would not use the plugin as a widget, and modify the sidebar.php file instead.

Hello, I´ve just updated to WP 2.6.2 – and as I have been a great fan of your really nice pluging I´m really sad that it doesn´t seem to work with WP 2.6. I get really confused comments there – the output just starts somewhere in the middle of my blog with no chance to geht the “latest” comment on Top. Don´t know why… I´ve tried for hours to solve the problem

Orangetree – I run several blogs with the plugin. It does work under any version of wordpress, including the 2.6 series. To enable me to help you, you should provide information about your installation. As a first step I would recommend to test, if it works when you temporarily switch back to the default theme, because “it starts somewhere where it’s not supposed to start” sounds like a bug in the theme. And by the way – we can speak german, if you like

one more question: could the plugin be changed so that it doesn’t just use the gravatar function but instead use the built-in function call of wordpress?
I am interested in this, as right now, wordpress shows either gravatar, and if not available shows wavatar or something else… and I’d like to keep avatars similar, not having mistery man inside comments, and in the sidebar something different.

Thank you for the plugin.
You plugin is incompatible with another great plugin:
“Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu”

The problem is that the menu of configuration of your plugin isn’t showed in the configuration page.This issue results in not to be able to go to “misc”options of your plugin and change the cache configuration…

I have to disable the other plugin to change that. No other problems with Ozh Admin Menu

Nice plug-in. I have it working on a sidebar with gravatas. But with cache disabled and the options set for ignore blog auther and check email – my commenst never update, and the most recent commenst are just not there.

Been using GRC for over a year with no problem. Suddenly, it’s stopped displaying new comments. The last comment it shows is from Oct 23. Since then, even comments from the same commenter that previously showed up don’t display.

I’m using 2.0.2. Don’t know when I updated, but probably on the day the new version was released.

I tried deactivating and reactivating the plugin, resaving the config, turning the cache off then on again, but no luck.

I am experiencing same problems as user ‘tbronson’ – last comment plugin shows is from october – and no comment from november is displayed. Suddenly it just stopped working right. Same thing happened in wp dashboard (recent comments window). I also tried to activate and deactivate the cache, but to no effect… Any help?

For those of you having problems with WordPress incorrectly displaying special characters or buggering up words, e.g. inserting spaces where there shouldn’t be, turning normal single quotes into strange entities (not html entities), etc. — you can fix this by updating the plugin with the following modification:

Started using intensedebate plugin for comments and I think it breaks your widget. the comments are no longer updated in sidebar since installing intensedebate plugin. They are now part of automattic so may be good to fix this. Thanks.

Just after my last post here, GRC started displaying again. It had just skipped a few comments. Now, it’s regularly omitting some comments, and displaying others.

I’m currently using 2.0.2. I tried everything: deactivating and reactivating, cache clearing.

This has happened since I started using GRC over a year ago. At first, it would skip comments from one particular commenter, so I figured it was something do with that address. Over the while, a comment would occasionally be missed. But now, it’s quite a few.

I can’t see a pattern. These are all regular comments, some with web site URLs, some without.

I know it sounds weird if it’s happening to no-one else, but any thoughts would be appreciated.

As far as I can tell, I’ve done everything I’m supposed to do. Selected the checkbox that supposedly filters by name and e-mail address, both of which I use in my posts and match those in my admin panel user name.

Can you please fix the “%BEG_OF_TITLE%Recent Comments%END_OF_TITLE%” error that still exists? It’s a pain to have to go to the options panel and hitting the “Update Recent Comments Options” button after every widget adjustment. I really don’t want to turn off the cache either. Thanks.

Alrite, here’s the idea: having posts loop, with recent comments on each, not just comment count.

This plugin will successfully accomplish this idea, except one simple lil thing. The post excerpt.

I wonder if there’s a way to call the post excerpt? As it’s already written to display post title and having its permalink, so I thought it should be possible to call the post excerpt and displaying it. I ‘ve looked around inside the plugin codes, and can’t find anything that refer to any functions to display post excerpt. I might missed something as usual.

We are having a very odd problem. We have an editor for our website whose comments do not show up in the Recent Comments on the sidebar. All the other poeple, who are either admins or authors have their comments display.

I have been unable to figure out why. Could someone point me to the things I should be checking?

Andrea, I think you don’t need to program, because the feature already exists. Check “Exclude comments by blog authors (your own comments)” and “Also consider usernames and e-mail addresses, to recognize blog authors”. Then all comments made by registered e-mail addresses are filtered out. In most blogs the only registered address is your own address and we are done.

If you still need to customize: look for the funktion kjgrc_is_wordpress_user() and search there for unwanted users.

Thanks! Is there a way to revise or remove the title without using it as a widget? Perhaps editing the plugin code itself? I am inserting teh code directly into my sidebar.php page instead of using widget support.

I’ve been using your plugin for quite a while now and I love what it can do. Recently I’ve updated it but I forgot a friend of mine changed it to show the local avatars too. Now I can’t seem to get that back and my friend doesn’t know what he changed anymore.. So my question for you is: Is there a possibility to show local avatars if a user doesn’t have a gravatar ?

Sometimes my posts have a long post_title. I’d like to shorten it to maybe 5 characters but this is only possible through the ‘Long comments are chopped off at’ feature. If I change that of course none of the comment is showing. Something I don’t want. So therefore my second question: anything I can do to change the length shown for the post_title ?

Love your plugin – it has worked fine until recently. It will work perfectly, then suddenly just stop posting new comments. I haven’t touched the settings or changed anything… but two times now the plugin just ceases to add new comments. It keeps whichever comments were moved to the main page recently, but no new ones show up. I’ve tried deactivating/activating. I’ve tried deleting the plugin and re-installing it, nothing works.

What’s strange, though – is that when I delete and reinstall it – somehow the plugin has remembered the style settings I changed for the comment display. Those same day-old comments will show up, but the several comments since that point still do not.

Chris: When comments are not updated the reason is most probably another plugin which prevents “get recent comments” from getting notified about new comments. The workaround is to disable the cache of “get recent comments”:

Since WP 2.7 i have had several problems with my plugins.
After an analysis of the cross influence I found one effect:
Is the Get Recent Comments Version 2.0.2 installed together with a combination of the following plugins
FeedBurner
Simple Tags
NextGen Gallery
the following effect will be created:
There is no longer access to the page editor in the wp dashboard

Shane, I have to confess: I have no clou on what piece you are programming. Is this for a theme? Has this something to do with my get recent comments plugin? Can I do something? What is the question for the answer “42″?

Dear Krischan.
Thank you very much for a great plugin. I am trying to integrate your plugin into my front page, so that every post show the 3 most recent comments(or exerpts if they are too long) on the front page.
How can I modify and use your plugin for this?
Again, thank you very much!

Hey, I love the plugin, Thanks!
I have a couple edits (adding some php variable to keep track of the comments in the list) that helped me style the comments a bit closer to what I already had on my site. Would you be interested in incorporating those into your plugin? Let me know and I can send you my edits (nothing hard, but I figured if I wanted those fields, others might as well).
Thanks again!

Having issues with %author_url_href. It’s not returning anything… so the only way I can find to include the url is href=”%author_url” which gives a blank href=”" if the comment author has not included a url. Thanks!

After i installed the plugin, I was able to go to “get-recent-comments.php” page where the admin panel is. However, when I click on any of the options (Comments, Trackbacks, Categories, Gravatars, Misc, Instructions), the URL is attempting to do a redirect to “…/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=get-recent-comments.php&subpage=1″ throught “…subpage=6″, and it brings me to my wordpress login page, and I cannot log in with my login and password. Any idea why this is happening?

raapil:
1. The specific post and comment is the latest post and latest comment. It is there to help you to design the template.
2. Then this is the only posting where the rules (“filter out authenticated user” / “filter out e-mail and/or username) apply.
3. HTML tags in the template do work.

I think there is a problem with the algorithm to wrap long words. Chris Murphy (above 2008-11-12) suggested a solution which may remove the problem if a “word” contains a tag making it long e.g. <b>Longwordwhichgetssplit</b> – the problem arises when the word gets split in the middle of a tag – but there is also a problem with character entities e.g. –Longwordwhichgetssplit&amp#8212; – again the problem arises when the word gets split in the middle of the entity.

Rick: Yes that is a problem, we can not solve completely at the moment. Or – we can not solve it without implementing a html rendering engine

To really solve it, it would be necessary to make the code to interpret html entities.
And it also should interpret Unicode multibyte characters, where the same problem occurs, when the whitespace gets inserted into a multibyte character.

Both problems are a job for php, I think we can expect functions for it in php 6.

Meanwhile two of my favourite choices are: Live with broken wrapped words, or deactivate the “wrap long words” feature and live with “broken” sidebar content. I am in doubt that removing the wp_texturize function is a good idea. Does it help at your site?

Hi Krischan, thanks for your reply. I was afraid that might be the answer and I hadn’t even considered the Unicode problem. I was hoping that there was an existing WP function that stripped out all tags and collapsed entities in a string. Not going as far as interpreting the HTML, just removing it, but if it doesn’t exist then I agree, it is a bit much for a simple plugin to do it.

In the tests I did, removing the wp_texturize call didn’t improve matters, I’m not even sure what it does. I have temporarily bypassed the problem by increasing the wrap long words threshold to a much higher number. Is that the correct way to disable the feature? I am fortunate that, in English, there are few very long words in regular use. In German I can see that it may be a more serious problem.

Rick: It is the only way to “disable” the feature at the moment. I think I should make it optional and disabled by default, since there are lots of people in the asian area which might find it annoying.

Hello,
I have been playing with Get Recent Comments v 2.0.2, and found a bug. Anytime the widget panel is saved in v 2.7.1 of WordPress, the title of the comment panel appears as:
%BEG_OF_TITLE%Recent Comments%END_OF_TITLE%. To fix this, I have to update and save my recent comment options. Thank you.

The text of the plug in comments are overflowing my sidebar a bit, a problem I do not have anywhere else on the sidebar.

I am using WP 2.7.1 with the Press Row theme, which I have substantially modified. My sidebar isn’t widget ready so I loaded and activated the plugin and placed the code where I wanted it in my sidebar.

Everything works great, except for a slight leakage of text at the right side of the sidebar.

“In the tests I did, removing the wp_texturize call didn’t improve matters, I’m not even sure what it does. I have temporarily bypassed the problem by increasing the wrap long words threshold to a much higher number. Is that the correct way to disable the feature? I am fortunate that, in English, there are few very long words in regular use. In German I can see that it may be a more serious problem”- yes it’s very well

Nick: The php function is available in php since php version 4.2. Because wordpress documentation says, at least 4.2 is needed for wordpress, I thought it would be ok, to use this function.
I think I am going to make the function call optional – if it is not available I will use the old variants. Please let me know wether the next release works for you. (And what php version your host runs).

thanks for the nice plugin. anyway, How can I add recent comment widget into each two sidebars? Surely I can do that with direct php function call, but it’s not less convenient than widget method. I advise you to enable to append duplicated widget like default text, rss widget.

Thanks for the great plugin, just a quick question, is there any way to modify the recent comments template so it can show PHP code? I’m using another plugin and would like to use this within the recent comments template:

Hello,
Thanks for this excellent plugin which we are using on our community blog. However, since upgrading to the plugin’s latest version, for some reason “%post_counter” is only outputting to total comments in English which used to be Bangla (localised). I can see that you have changed the output in two places: where it used to be “number_format_i18n($post_counter)” instead of simply “$post_counter”. I tried to revert them back but it is not working. Is there anywhere else where I should revert the changes?

Hi, thanks for your excellent plugin, I just started to use it in my blog.

I notice there is a minor error that I would like to highlight to you. In the Macros <a %author_url_href … eventually the output become <a a href=”http://…

Also I have made some modification to the get-recent-comments.php file in my blog. A new macro $author_url_full_href is added to the file, so that when %author_url is empty it only display author name, rather than it display an empty link. Here are the modification:

I love this plugin. Thanks. I am using it as a widget in wordpress 2.7.1 – I would like the oldest comment to be at the top and the most recent comment to be at the bottom; how can I fix that? I don’t know much about html, so if you can supply the code and tell me where to put it that would be so helpful! You can see how I have it set up now on my blog at the URL provided.

Hi, thanks for this great plug-in. It looks like it should do everything I need, but I’m having trouble with the options. The changes to the settings are not reflected on the output. The only way to make changes seems to be by clicking the edit widget button — and that only allows changing the number of comments and the title. I don’t seem to have the other options that show in your illustration. In fact my menu options in WordPress are different than you show. I don’t have “presentation”, I have “appearance”. Is this a difference between my 2.7.1 and older versions?

In particular I was interested in getting the content of the comments on the sidebar (just as shown on your website) which should happen even in your default mode. I’ve tried different themes and don’t see the content in any of them.

I’m a total loss I’ve tried everything I can think of but for some reason I can only get the default gravatar. What’s even more peculiar its not even the default as set in my discussion admin
please advise. I’m about to pull out my hair

Hi
I need to integrate the code of this widget into the sidebar.php because it has four other items. I did it like with the others by copy and paste. It does not work at all. If I activate it as a widget, it replaces the existing sidebar.

have some fait. the creator of this plugin is a little lazy but in the end he will update it (at least, this is what he has been doing for the previous versions of its plugin) he just needs to wake up! lol

I used wordpress 2.8 and install this plugin but when I config new format for recent comments layout my session kick me to logout from admin page and cannot login with old password anymore!!! what happen!!??? I have to reset my admin password everytime and cannot use this plugin

cylenre: I am sure, that you experienced a coincidence. The plugin does nothing with the passwords, and a serious bug like this would have been known earlier, because there are thousands of installations of the plugin in the wild.

The code change above suggested by Chris Murphy above corrected a but which I have noticed since first using this plugin with WP 2.3, where punctuation was incorrectly formatted only on the recent comments list. I would strongly recommend this be done in the base code.

I was just wondering, why all of a sudden my comments are no longer sorted by comment date? can you pelase have a look? follow the link of my profile to my homepage and check out the sidebar, the comments in the second tab are not sorted by date

Hi there, fantastic plugin. Does anybody have any suggestions for a peice of code I could add to the plugin to add a ‘next’ and ‘previouse’ button that would display the previouse X (how ever many comments have been set to be displayed) comments.
Thanks

There is a category ID in $post->term_taxonomy_id. If the post belongs to several categories, it’ll contain the last category found in the database.

@Krischan,

your plugin is fantastic. I’ve written a plugin too : Category Icons (v2.1 is compatible with WP2.8+) and I have a request : could you please add thoses lines in your plugin to add compatibility with my plugin :

%post_icon will then display the category icon of the post. To be more precise, it’ll display the LAST category icon, as $post->term_taxonomy_id contains the last category found in the database if the post belongs to several categories. I’ll be very happy if my plugin was compatible with your Get recent comments plugin !

Hey there,
Nice plugin, better than the standard widget in WP. Only thing is I would like the recent comments which are shown in the sidebar to be clickable to the entrie or comment itself. This would be very helpful for reading the complete comment when it was chopped because it was too long…

I’m sorry if this is not the appropriate place to ask this question, but I’m attempting to use this plugin on a site I am working on. I’m using the latest version of WordPress MU, 2.8.4. It is working excellently on all but one page. The page is a single post view containing a poll. (wp-polls by Lester Chan). On the problematic page it is not displaying the name of the commentator. I have removed the recent comments from this page temporarily as this is an active site.

If you have any ideas as to how I can correct the problem please let me know. Thank you for the otherwise wonderful plugin

Thank you, thank you for such a wonderful plug-in! I have only one small issue, and I’ve searched for an answer with no luck so far.

Basically the recent comments seem to be cutting off arbitrarily–in some cases only after 2-3 words, even though I have the character limit set to 120 (on WP 2.8.4, with the latest recent comments build).

Here’s the site (www.emandlo.com), which is a dating/relationship/advice site, so the content is a tiny bit NSFW. The comments are on the left, and seem to cut off–some earlier than others. Any idea how I might fix this?

Thanks again for your excellent plug-in, and thanks so much in advance for any suggestions you might be able to offer as to how to address this issue.

Damn… it’s actually happening again. Has anyone seen this before? Check the top comment (or the one that seems to be cutting off if it’s not the comment by the time you click through): http:..www.emandlo.com

There’s no punctuation there at all… why is that comment from “Rob” cutting off early?

Weird bug: We have a website with lots of comments and consequently the comments are shown on multiple pages. We display the oldest comments first, so the newest ones are on sub-pages. The problem is that when a new comment is added on these sub-pages, the comment links in the Widget aren’t working. It looks like they just don’t have the proper url structure.

Anyone bumped into this issue? Could it be because the plugin can’t handle multiple comment pages?

Fernando: These versions are known to be working. There is something wrong with your wordpress installation. Somehow your installation tries to include the plugin twice. Or it includes several different versions. Can you check the plugin directory? Are there old files, which you should delete?

Steph: You are right: Putting comments on multipe pages is a pretty knew option in wordpress, and the plugin doesn’t know how to handle that. Until it does I would recommend to let the plugin show less comments than you put on one comment page. Since it only shows the newest comments, there shoud be only links to the first comments page. And this is backwards compatible.

Krischan: I erased the plugin by ftp, and donwloaded again and tried again. It didn’t activate again.
It’s incredible, I’m the only guy in the world that is not abled to use your plugin. I don’t see anybody else with my problem. It doesn’t even activate.

Krischan, if there is any plugin that does something close to yours would you please send me by email?
In case I can’t fix this?

I have just recently upgraded to 2.8.4 from the legacy 2.0.11. I’m pretty sure that the recent comments plugin was working in the first couple of days after the upgrade. But as of today, the sidebar doesn’t update unless I go into the plugin settings and hit “update recent comments options”.

The only change I’ve made was to switch all the wp database tables from latin1 to utf-8. But this started occurring a couple of days earlier when I was failing to make the database switch and having to restore the databases entirely from backups.

Any ideas about what I might have done to cause this error?

Thank you.

Thank you for the great plugin! I’ve used it before on previous versions of WP and it was working fine, but now I’m having problems with WordPress 2.8.4. I’m testing my site here http://crimefiles-bg.com/wordpress/

Recent comments is in the bottom-right part of the site. The problem is that the comments from certain posts make it crash or something and it doesn’t show anything. And the posts in question are not the same every time, sometimes it’s one, then other, then even two or three at a time. When I disable the comments under these posts it’s working but when I add new ones (no matter under which post) it starts behaving again.
Tried to disactivate the plugins but it still won’t work. Then I switched to the default template, turned off all the plugins and when I put recent-comments in the sidebar it won’t work on the homepage but only in posts.
I hope you have any ideas what may be the problem and if it’s fixable. I really would like to use this wonderful plugin:)

I have ‘Exclude comments by blog authors (your own comments)’ ticked but it’s still not showing administrator comments. Is this a bug with the current release or something isolated to my site? Can anyone confirm?

I had user asking for a widget to display comments with the voting results in sidebar. You have done a excellent plugin/widget and I have no intention of reinventing the wheel.

Could I branch off you plugin and add the Comment Rating images and votes? To be mroe specific, I’ll create a Comment Rating widget using your code and follow your release schedule. Of course, the work will be attributed to you.

Bob, I think the best way would be to add a macro “%rating”. At the first glance it looks like it’s easy to use to add support for your rating function. Feel free to branch off. I will backport the changes to the next plugin release, to save you from having to patch it over and over again.

This seems like a very sweet plugin. But the exclude categories function does not seem to work. Even when in settings telling the plugin not to list comments from a certain category they still appear….

Hey Krischan
This is a terrific plugin. The options are incredible. I’ve recently changed the way I’m doing widgets on one of my sites (now using section widget) and I can’t get GRC to work that way. Had the same issue with another plugin, but using a shortcode for the output solved it. Any chance of getting a shortcode for the output of GRC?

On my blog I’m using the allow categories plugin to restrict access to certain categories to non-logged user. Can we manage to get recent comments for restricted categories only when we are logged and get recent comments to the other categories only when we are not logged to the blog ?

Hi. Great widget. Can you customize it so that the most recent comments section contains no more than 1 comment from any user? So even if for example “George” makes 4 comments only his latest one will show up in the list?

Thanks for a great, elegant plugin. It’s rare to find a plugin that does just exactly what you want it to do and looks like you want it to look, but Get Recent Comments is pretty much perfect from my perspective.

Hi. I’ve just activated your plugin. Looks nice but one thing isn’t working for me:

The email address that I use for the blog is “joey AT dogsdontlookbothways DOT com”. I’ve CHECKED the box “Exclude comments by blog authors (your own comments)” and in the Profile section, “Joey” is the “Display Name” and the “Nickname” so it seems to me that Joey’s comments should not show up. However, the “Comments” sidebar shows Joey’s comments, which I think it should not.

I checked off the “Show Comments and Trackbacks/Pingbacks together” checkbox in the Comments screen. If I did this, do I still have to add both the Comments and Trackbacks widgets to my sidebar? I don’t have any trackbacks yet so I have no way of knowing if it’s necessary or not.

For example – each of my posts has a gallery of photos in it. When someone clicks on a photo, they can leave a comment. This comment shows up in WP’s built-in default comments widget, but not in yours.

the only thing i’ve done, is uploading the file to plugins folder, activated it, set the settings, and put it in my sidebar.
now, the title isn’t showing.
i only discovered that it’s supposed to have a title because i found some other guys via this page that use it.

could you give me a tip?
it’s pretty crappy to have a plugin that doesn’t work 100%.

Hi Krischan,
I really like your plugin as it is very useful for many tasks, but I would like to point one thing that looks like a bug:
When you chose to hide the author’s comments, the widget displays the comments in ASC order (oldest first) instead of displaying the new ones first.
Just a small issue, for the rest it is such a great job.
Danke!

Hey! This is a great plugin, now I am able to put recent comments into the header of my WordPress blog. BUT I HAVE A FEATURE SUGGESTION! There are variables available that print certain text. Like %comment_excerpt, %comment_link, %comment_author, %comment_date ETC ETC…. %comment_excerpt prints out the SHORTENED comment. Could you add a variable which would PRINT THE WHOLE COMMENT? So that I could put it like this: when user puts cursor on comment author’s nickname, it would show the whole comment if I put that variable in the code. Could you please make this variable available? Thanks! I already tried just putting %comment_text without success.

And I also tried putting %comment_content but that didn’t work either! And I definitely don’t want to shorten the limit of long comments, because that would make all of the recent comment list’s comments so long that it would make no sense at all. So could you add some variable which would show the WHOLE comment?

hi, first, thanks for this plugin and I love it so much. I found a validation error caused by repetition of the ID get_recent_comments_wrap for using one recent comment and one recent trackback. It already reported above though. Hopefully will be fixed by next version. Thanks!

Is there a way to use or edit this plugin to get at the most recent comment from a specific page or post? I see the category filtering option, but I need to show the most recent comment from a specific page in my sidebar…

Hey Krischan, well done with your plugin, it’s awesome.
But i’m still trying to use it to retrive comments to an attachment (an image for example, comments to image.php). This type of comments are placed in the same table but they are not visualized, any ideas on wich i can work with?

I like your plug-in a lot and have used it since I began posting. However it doesn’t do two functions that the instructions say it will. Namely, it lists all my comments along with the others despite all attempts to avoid that (email, username, etc.) and the comments all stop before the actual comment (even though the example in the options shows just fine).

A quick note — the problem I mentioned above is now fixed. All I had to do was turn off (i.e. uncheck) the option to cache comment info within the plugin’s settings. Now it works fine.
Thanks,
Mike @ GarageSpin.com

Hi – great plugin, I’ve been using it for some time. Just spotted a small problem. The option “Exclude comments by blog authors” doesn’t quite do that. It excludes comments by all subscribed members. It would be more useful if it only excluded those that were author or above as many people subscribe to mine but are not authors, only commenters. All their remarks don’t show.

Of late I see a strange problem, every few days my settings vanish (I have a very specific way I am using this to show gravatars and line in the sidebar) . It is fine for a day or two and without reason goes back to defaults (reset). Would greatly appreciate inputs/help. Please feel fre to mail me as well..

Hey there Krischan, nice plugin! Maybe you can tell me if it’s possible to make the author’s name or the post title of the comment clickable towards the comment itself? I know have the comments in the sidebar like I want to, but it’s not possible to go to the commented entrie easily. If I use the %comment_link it puts in the complete loooong link in the sidebar instead of the neat, short name of the entrie like when I use %post_title as I’m doing now.

Apparantly, many of you are having problems to set up the plugin so that it uses dynamic gravatars (identicons, wavatars, …), so here is how you do that:

HOW TO USE DYNAMIC GRAVATARS (IDENTICONS, WAVATARS, …)
1. Open up get-recent-comments.php .
2. Search for $comment_gravatar_url .
3. Two lines below the line you’ve just found (most likely line 1334), change:

Hello,
Great plugin. How would I go about limiting the output of comments from a specific Page – not a Post. Is there anywhere/way that I can add an exclude command to <?php get_recent_comments(); ?> ?

Hello Krischan,
first of all, thanks for the plugin, i’m using it in every website i create. Till now, i was using the sidebar widget function, but i would now integrate the plugin in my sidebar.php wordpress file. The problem is i’m french and can’t find where to change the title of the plugin. I’ve tried to change the name in the code you’ve told :

I’ve changed in but it didn’t work so i’ve tried to change something in your get-recent-comments.php but i can’t find it.
I would really appreciate you help because i love your plugin.
Regards,
Ludo

Great recent comments plugin. I was able to “target” the widget id and style it the way I wanted. Well, pretty close to what I wanted anyway. You can check it out on this page here (right sidebar, Recent Comments): http://dougdraws.com/favicon-this/

Now if I could only get each comment to be up on the same line with the commentor’s name, like this…

Gil: Thank you for the that good kick in the butt. We all need that encouragement some days, even those…

Duh…nevermind, lol. Just figured it out. The reason that the commentor’s name and the comment were on separate lines is because in my theme’s CSS the “side_roll” class that controls the ul and li of the sidebars had “display: block:”. When I removed that then they both joined up.

Hi Frank. Not dead yet. But I have no feedback yet, hence am unable to confirm or deny compatibility. Usually wordpress is very kind to plugins. We had not one backwards compatibility issue in the past.

Hello,
I really enjoy the plugin, but I need to put a wrapping div around each comment in the code of the plugin. I would normally just place it in the template for comments, but I’m using a php function to add a class to each comment for alternating backgrounds. I was curious where I should place this wrapping div, since I can’t seem to find where it is in the get-recent-comments.php file.

Also, I’m using WordPress 3.0, and the plugin works fine. No issues as of yet.

hi Krischan!
Sorry for my words…it was just a “bad” joke! Thanks for your reply. I really, really do like your plugin and I use it with great success. I just said so because a couple of days ago I got aware that on your WordPress plugin page the plugin is marked as compatible till WP 2.8…that’s it! Hope you are not going to forget us and that you will keep your plugin updated! Thanks again for your great plugin and if you need any help from me and my blog..let me know!

My wordpress theme includes a couple different sidebars. I’d like the “Get Recent Comments” widget to show up on both, but for some reason there is only one “copy” of the widget. No copy is left in my unused list of widgets, so I don’t have another to grab to put on my other sidebar. How do I resolve this? Thanks for your help.

i use WP 3.0 MU and there is a problem, which i actually cant´t locate.
i have 2 sites managed by WP MU. in site1 i can normaly update the template entry for the list-items. but when i try to do this for site2 and confirm it, the admintool jumps back to site1 without any effekt.

I love your plugin and use it on both of my sites/blogs. It works fine in WordPress 3.0 with the Thesis 1.7 theme.

I’d like to make a feature request though. I recently used a custom php function to separate trackbacks from the comment counts on posts, but I notice it didn’t have any effect on the comment counts for your plugin. I’m hoping you might modify the code below and include it in the next version of your plugin somehow. I’d like the number of comments displayed to match the actual number of comments that a post has.

Thank you for this great work.
However,
this plugin sort of works on WordPress 3.0. I am seeing most comments but not all.
I need to separate categories comments from which should display on different pages. I have chosen categories which the plugin should exclude and the exclusion works but then it excludes more than what I asked for.
Does anyone else have the same issue?

I have a small bug in this plugin on my site. For some reason, the first few lines of the widget immediately AFTER the Recent Comments widget are getting wrapped in an anchor tag and becoming a link. Not sure if this is due to the plugin or my theme. I’m running the latest version of the plugin (v2.0.6) with WordPress 3.0 and Thematic 0.9.6.2 as my theme.

Hi, we are using your plugin with WP 2.8.4 and WP Super Cache. With the plugin cache activated, comments display only when a post is updated. With the plugin cache deactivated, server load increases to an unacceptable level. We have 50,000+ comments in the WP DB. Is there a way to deactivate the plugin cache without making a lot of work for the server? Thanks.

I’ve been using this plugin for a while now and if I took it away my readers would howl. It is an important part of how they interact with the site. So, thanks!

I do have a minor issue, and it doesn’t look like anyone else has mentioned it. It’s about comments on pages (not to be confused with paged comments).

I have a few static pages, and for the most part the comments on those pages show up just fine in the Recent Comments sidebar. My most recent static page, however, is set up as a subpage of another page. This morning I got my first two comments on that page, but they didn’t show up in the Recent Comments on my sidebar.

You can see the setup on my site; At the top there is a link to “The Geeky Stuff Behind the Blog” which at this moment DOES have a comment that shows up in the sidebar, and another to “MacGPG2 Step by Step” which today had a veritable avalanche of comments (two), but they do not show in the sidebar.

Not a biggie, but I thought maybe it would be helpful to let you know.

it seems not to be possible to configure this widget for a multiblog installation. Whatever I do in another multiblog instance, I allways will come back to the main blog instance and overwrite the settings there instead of the sub-blog.

Is it possible to get this plugin configured in any multiblog instance seperatly?

This plugin works great in Google Chrome and Firefox, but for some reason it doesn’t work at all in IE 8. I don’t know if the problem is IE 8 or the theme I’m using (Branford Magazine), but no matter if I try it in the tabbed section above my lead story on the front page or as a sidebar widget, no comments at all show up in IE 8. I’m forced to use WP’s basic Get Comments widget for now, and that sucks. Anyone have an idea why this is happening?

There’s just one thing: It shows perfectly within the sidebar on my blog frontpage and on pages – but it does not on articles! The place just stays blank. Where might be the mistake in my wordpress code?

I’ve been using this plugin for ever and I love it. Lately though I’ve added support to comments on pages and sub pages and they show up randomly (mostly they don’t show up) I read through the list of comments and I read that other people have been affected by this bug, in time. I’ve briefly read the code and I couldn’t find anything plugin related that would trigger this behaviour, but it was a quick scan. Can you point me out to the right direction?

Hmm, I don’t think this wonderful plugin is being updated any more, but I have the same problem as a couple of people above: comments from my pages and subpages aren’t showing up. I hope someone would be able to solve this mystery some day.

I’m in the process of migrating from WP.com to self-hosted WP.org, and gravatars don’t show up in My Recent Comments. I’m using Twenty Ten theme. Any suggestions? Have tried all sorts of things already; nothing works.

Hello, I’m using your plugin, it’s great. But I’ve got one problem. I’m using Genesis Framework plus Streamline theme. I enabled commenting on pages in Genesis config page and that works OK. Problem is that the comments on pages don’t show up in the recent comments widget, which I use in the sidebar. Only the comments on posts appear. How do I show up comments on pages?

Nice plug in.
Is there a way the plugin can publish the comments immediately the user clicks the post button and the comments can be categorized when posting e.g for buyers,sellers etc such that if am a seller i just need to go to the seller tab and post my comments there and same for a buyer or even an all section where all comments can appear and also maybe have a search box for searching the posted comments.

Hi,
I have just installed this plug in, and just like everyone thinks, I think it’s a great plugin. However, It doesn’t display at the side bar just the way I want it. Is it possible to display only the Commenter’s gravater and the post’s title only? Because right now, the gravater doesn’t show at all..
Thank you.
